Professional Keynote Speaker, Trainer, Author & Minister Husband to my better two-thirds, father of three, grandfather of five and servant. The death of one of my five grandchildren, the only girl, Alanna, while in pursuit of my Masters in Biblical and Theological Studies from Dallas Theological Seminary, changed my ministry direction thrusting me into service of the grieving community. I serve as a keynote speaker and trainer, presenting on grief topics including self-care, grandparent grief, and bereavement care and while giving my transformative testimony of hope through my first-hand experience and heartache of losing a grandchild and the complication that comes with being a grieving grandparent and caregiver. Along with speaking and training, I have written numerous articles on biblical, spiritual and grief topics and serve the grieving community in multiple capacities including Hospice and Fire and Police Chaplaincy. I also serve as part of the leadership or active membership in organizations including Grief and Faith, Camp Agape and Compassionate Friends. I work with schools, businesses, organizations, and churches, helping them create a safe landing space and continued care for those returning to their communities after a grief event. I serve grievers directly as well with a message of Hope and Healing, how to return to the “world” (family, friends, work, etc) and remain productive in their post-grief-event state.
